Wrongfully.
New York telegram.

DIR. McGlynns first reply TO the notice of
ks communication appears In this week s
Standard. There is a manifest effort
throughout what he says to justify his
course from the beginning. He gives 10
the public. for the first time, his final sum-
mons 10 Rome, which was sent him in Nav;
denounces the way in which he was adj
dressed in it by the Cardinal PrefeG. of
the Propaganda, but attributes that
prelate's feeling toward III to tue
zone sided and numerous letters sent TO
Rome against the Doctor by Archbishop
Corrigan." He also attempts to prove that
which lie and his friends have again and
again asserted, that his case was preludged
at Eome. and that he was cal ed there TO
be disciplined rather than for trial, as
Mr.. Preston declared. Speaking of his
having partaken of the holy communion
last Sunday, DR.. McGlynn says he did SO
because he holds that he has not
been legally accommodated; that he
would not enter any church and raise
a disturbance in order to partake o, the
loly eucharist; that he would receive it
from any friendly priest who believes rs
he does. paper called Truth publishes
the statement that DR.. McGlynn has con-
suited three eminent jurists with n view to
testit G h case in the courts on plea that
the authorities have boycotted him and are
guilty, moreover, of defamation of charac-
ter and libel. III this position is legally
tenable, Truth asserts, Archbishop Corri-
can can be indicted.

Encouraging Trade,

A great many stories are told of the
kindness of the good Bishop Wilson
who was Bishop of Sodor and Man
for 81 years, and died in 1895. The
following contains a seasonable les
son for these times of bad trade:
The Bishop had ordered a cloak
from a tailor, and desired that il
might be perfectly plain, with merely
a button and loop to fasten it.
'But, my lord" said the tailor,
what would become of the poor but
tonmakers and their families if every
one thought in that way; they would
be starved outright"
"Do you say SO, John?" replied the
Bishop. why, then, button it all
over, John"

rapid changes in the appearance of
these objects that so astonished their
original discoverer. Schiaparell him
self. at about the same time re-discov-
cred the double canals. The astrono-
mers at Nice also caught sight of sew
eral shining points lying south of the
north polar snow fields of Mars, and
closely resembling similar phenomena
perceived by Mr.. Green at Madeira in
1877, near the southern snow cap of
that planet. 1t has been suggested
that these brilliant spots, whose visi-
bility apparently depends upon the
seasons, may be mountainous islands
so situated that they are covered with
snow and ice during parts of the year,
and disappear to our eyes when the
snow melts.
The singular and most interesting
spectacle of clouds in the atmosphere
of Mars, obscuring portions of its sur
face and changing their form and po-
sition, as if driven by winds, was also
witnessed by NM. Perrotin and Thol-
Ion. Through these drifting clouds
they beheld glimpses of some of the
lands and seas of Mars, now shining
out distinctly, as if in bright sunshine,
and now becoming obscure with
shadow or disappearing entirely under
vaporous veil.
Those who formerly thought that
the moon might be an inhabited world
found the foundation of their belief
cut away from under them when it
became evident that the moon is des-
titute of air and water. But this pow
erful argument against habitableness
cannot be applied in this case of Mars.
The planet surely possesses an atmos-
phere and water 1t is true that the
distribution of the lands and seas on
Mars is very different from that on
the earth, and Mars has as much dry
land as it has water. Its atmosphere
also probably differs very much from
ours. Yet it does possess both water
and air, and so, although the condi-
lions of life there would vary widely
from those prevailing upon the earth,
it is upon the whole more reasonable
to conclude that life in some form ex-
lists upon Mars than that it is a dead
and deserted world like the moon
For this reason discoveries concern
ing the physical condition of Mars
possess "a peculiar interest. As science
does not forbid the belief that Mars
may be inhabited by intelligent be-
ings, we are not obliged to look upon
the various features of its surface that
powerful telescopes reveal as merely
so many details of a desert and ten
antless landscape, but rather we may
consider them as the environments of
sensible beings, who, inasmuch as
they belong to our solar system, and,
like ourselves, are journeying onward
with the sun, must be regarded as our
fellow voyagers through space.
Like the crew and passengers of a
lone ship, long tossed upon bound
less ocean, we strain our eyes after
this distant consort of the earth and
wish for telescopes of almost infinite
power that we might catch a glimpse
of friendly faces looking out from that
faraway sail.-Nep York Sun.

From an Interview with a Banker
Unless the moneys identity is entire
" gone it is redeemable. In fact,
money in the shape of ashes can be re-
stored, and after the great Chicago
fire ashes we're redeemed. 1t came
about in this way: 1t is customary in
banks to do money up in packages,
say of $4,000 each, and in the big
fire, of course, hundreds and hundreds
of these packages we're reduced to
ashes. But the shape of the packages
remained, aud wherever the package
could be sent on to Washington with
out crumbling the ashes, the money
was sure to be replaced. 1t was done
by nimble-fngered women in the Treas
Department, whose trained touch and
sight are wonderfully acute. 1t is well
known that the ashes of a newspaper
if dampened will show traces of the
printing. So it was with bills. These
women would moisten the pack
ages of apparently useless ashes, and
to their experienced eye the number
and character of the bill would at once
appear. So thousands and thousands
Of dollars were redeemed by these
patient women.
A country merchant, afraid of banks,
placed large sum of money in bills in
a stone jar on shelf in his store
where he thought it would be qnite
safe. When he went to look at it one
day some time after it was mass of
fragments. Mice had got into the jar
and chewed the bills into the min
utest parts. They had mixed them
all up, and together it was a fear
full looking mess. He sent a cigar
box full of it to me. l forward
ed it to Washington, and what do
you thinkf Out Of the $l145 origin
ally in the pile little over $1,000 was
redeemed, the parts beyond recall be-
ing only the mere 6bres Of the DILL. So
the man lost only 500 by his foolish
ness

previous TO her 50th birthday anniver-
sary on Saturday, Sept. 10th, sent out
invitations to all the families of her
brothers and sisters and father includ-

Fowler's family, all of whom responded
TO the number of 25 or 80, except the
families of one brother and a sister,
whose presence was most confidently
expected and were undoubtedly provi-
dentially absent. The day was a de-
lightful one, and all enjoyed this
retreat from the long protracted mo-
notony of farm trudgery and shop
work to family reunion and feast

bountiful repast of rare deli

buoyant with hope and gladness. But
before they reached the mountain,
down the hill near George Miller's on
their homeward journey an accident
occurred which caused Emandus Ben
der's team to run away, partly demol-
ishing the wagon, throwing the occu-
pants and seriously injuring Mrs. Dan
iel Wenner, Emandus and Clem Ben
der and slightly Mrs. Bender, Mr..
Daniel Wenner having jumped out be-
fore the wreck AMI escaped injury.
After gathering up the fragments and
wounded the excitement somewhat sub.
sided, and the injured ones placed into
other vehicles, the party again pro-
ceeded on their journey across the
mountain, but pains and groans super
seded the recalling of the enjoyments
of the day. No one ever knows what
besets his way.
